We have been piloting a lab generated reflex lactate done four hours after the initial draw time on patients that have a lactate of > 2. The only pushback we have had is related to our trauma patients who routinely have one done on admission. Are any of your facilities trauma centers and are you doing reflex lactates and has there been any pushback? Thanks for your feedback.
